If you talk about small cars it’d be a different type of car – fully electric, probably. The 2022 Volvo V90 Cross Country is a rarity a large station wagon. Designed to create a luxury experience in a crossover body style, the 2022 Volvo XC60 is ideal for drivers looking for a bit more cargo capacity. We have increased our coverage of the market from a product line-up perspective and that’s okay. “That means, indirectly, that we are not in the rat race of filling every niche. Then we go into more depth – keeping our powertrains up, keeping the infotainment up to spec, and so forth. He said: “Of course we’ve looked at, but we’ve clearly decided that there’s probably room for another body style alongside the XC40 in the next two to three years, and that’s what we’re exploring. This is thanks to an 18.8kWh battery and 143bhp electric. Kerssemakers has also ruled out the notion that Volvo will build a smaller model to sit below its current entry-level 40 range, insisting that the company can achieve its goal of rising from around 650,000 to 800,000 global sales without additional models. Volvo quotes a range of up to 42 miles on electric power alone, although around 25 is more realistic.
The final car will likely feature elements of the XC40’s design – sharing a similar radiator grille and near identical headlamp units – but it’ll have a lower roofline, slightly lower suspension and a more rakish rear end. If you want a wilfully different electric crossover where practicality takes a slight backseat, Sweden already does a wholly convincing one of those, and priced from under £40k too.Our exclusive images provide a good indication of how the production-ready Volvo V40 could look.

Then again, you can hardly blame Volvo for pitching it above £50k given that the Skoda Enyaq iV Coupe commits exactly the same sin. What holds the C40 back – for now – is that the standout dual-motor version is so much more expensive than the siblings on which it’s based. You'll also have gripes, almost all of them typical of a slant-roofed SUV. There are plenty of neat touches, nearly all with a wholesomely sustainable story to back up their materials. They say it’s been penned with design as its priority, and you can tell. The C40 looks great and has all the zen interior ambience you’d hope from a Volvo with a silent drivetrain. Opt for the single-motor C40 in base-spec Core trim, and you’re looking at a much more palatable starting point of £44,800.
In twin-motor, top-spec form the C40 costs a mighty £58,900 or £759 per month on Volvo’s ‘Care’ scheme which bundles in all the key maintenance stuff over its three-year term.
